Kayla's POV

'The burning tree was my fault' that was the thought in my head as I jolted awake.

I woke up to the same emptiness that had filled my chest for the past few days.

My fingers ran across the cold, stone floor as I sat up in bed. I wasn’t sure why I even bothered getting up today.

My body felt heavy, like every breath was a burden.

My powers.

I couldn’t even think about them without feeling the sharp sting of shame. The accident with the tree felt like it was haunting me every second.

That when I accidentally let my emotions take control and set a tree on fire. I could easily have hurt someone, and I didn’t even know how I did it.

I was terrified that if I tried to practice again, I might ACTUALLY hurt someone this time.

I couldn’t even talk to anyone about it. How could I? They’d all blame me for it. They’d see me as the danger I am.

The worst part was, I believed it. I believed I would always bring trouble to everyone I loved. Everyone who cared about me woul

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Adrian attacks Xavier

    Adrian's POV Candice’s expression softened. “That’s the Alpha I remember.” She stood. “I’ll go speak to to a few people, try to see what else the council is plotting. You focus on Kayla.” As she left, Connor lingered in the doorway. “You can do this, Alpha,” he said quietly. “But you need rest first. You’re running on fumes.” “Rest later,” I muttered, but the exhaustion was real. “Right now, I have to find her.”I was about to head to the library when Logan’s voice crashed into my head through the mind link.Logan: Alpha, we’ve got a problem. Xavier just visited Hector in the holding cells.The air left my lungs.What the hell could that bastard possibly want with my brother?Without a word, I turned and stormed across the grounds, heading straight for the dungeons. My pulse pounded in my ears, rage pulsing with each step. Logan met me halfway, trying to keep up with my pace."He's already gone," he said. "Left the cells five minutes ago.""Where is he now?""Headed for the court

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Adrian's thoughts

    Adrian The moment Kayla slipped out of my office, closing the door with that careful, almost surgical precision, the air went flat—like all the oxygen had been sucked out of the room. I stared at the empty gap for what felt like forever, the apology tangled on my tongue, useless now that she was gone.How did I let it get this bad?I collapsed back into my chair and rubbed my temples. Every word she’d said replayed in a brutal loop: Each phrase sliced deeper than the last.I should have chased after her, should have dropped to my knees and begged for forgiveness. But I just sat there, frozen, wondering if I’d already missed my chance.A terrifying thought settled in my chest: What if Kayla never lets me explain? What if she leaves again— for good this time? The idea of losing her permanently was like swallowing broken glass.Was I doomed to end up alone after all? The fates seemed determined to dangle happiness in front of me only to yank it away at the last second— first Amanda, th

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kayla seeks permission

    Kayla's POV I really really didn't want to see Adrian, not because I was still mad at him about Candice, but because it felt like my heart barely survived seeing him yesterday.I thought that I could just turn off my feelings for him but I quickly realized how wrong I was when I laid my eyes on him. And walking away from him felt like a stab to my chest.Ingrid gave me an encouraging look as we left the library. “Luna, are you sure you want to do this alone? I can go in with you if you want.” She offered but I shook my head. “I have to do this myself,” I replied quietly. “Stay close though, just in case.” She nodded silently, worry clearly written in her eyes. Walking through the corridors to Adrian's office felt unbearably slow. Each step echoed through the hall, my anxiety growing with every passing moment. Finally, I stood before the heavy wooden doors. Taking a deep breath, I knocked softly. “Come in,” Adrian's voice called out, muffled slightly behind the thick doors. My s

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    The southern library

    Kayla's POV "Help me! Please help!" I woke up abruptly, my heart pounding in my chest. Sweat clung to my forehead, and the vivid images from the dream refused to fade away. I had seen Lady Rina’s frightened face flashing in front of me again, her pregnant belly was prominent as she ran frantically toward the familiar orphanage. She glanced over her shoulder with fear consuming her eyes. But who was she running from? I didn't know, and I couldn't see the threat.But lady Rina looked absolutely terrified for her life and I could sense that whoever was chasing her was very dark. I sat up in my bed and took a deep breath, my pulse slowing. The questions about Lady Rina had been haunting my mind for too long now.Ever since I first dreamt of her back in the Oracle's sanctuary, my mind kept replaying the same images over and over, urging me to uncover the truth about her.Whatever had happened back then—it was probably more significant to my life than I could imagine. I clenched th

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kayla's hunt for Rina

    Kayla's POV Adrian let go of my hand slowly, as if every inch of separation killed him. Every inch of the separation killed me too but I wasn't about to let him see that.I packed everything I had from the room and rushed past him.He barely moves and didn't even blink. it looked like he was in shock.My steps echoed down the corridor as I rushed into the guest wing, leaving Adrian standing frozen in the doorway. My new room felt empty and lifeless.And I knew that it was because it was Missing the warmth Adrian’s presence had always brought me. I slumped on the bed before burying my face in my hands while desperately trying to calm my shaking breaths. “Luna Kayla! You're really back!" The door suddenly burst open, and Ingrid rushed in with relief brightening her eyes. “Oh, thank the Goddess! I was so worried. Where have you been?” “I wasn't far, I just needed some space,” I admitted softly, barely looking up.I felt bad for leaving her in the dark when all she had wanted was fo

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Returning to the palace

    Kayla's POV "Dear goddess, please guide me in my endeavors." I prayed as I left the orphanage. My heart pounded violently as I carefully adjusted the hood over my head before pulling it lower over my eyes to hide my face from the palace guards that were patrolling the streets in search of me.I could hear them clearly— with boots crunching gravel, orders being barked urgently to find me, and my picture circulating among the crowd.These people were working day and night to find me.I almost barked out a dry laugh because the irony wasn’t lost on me. It seemed that Adrian had only realized my worth after I had already decided to leave. Just like Xavier had only wanted me after I was gone. Men. They only seemed to appreciate you when they were losing you. Taking a deep breath, I watched the guards carefully. I waited until one of them turned his back, distracted by a loud commotion from the nearby market, and then I quickly slipped past them, holding my breath until I reached the p

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kayla meets. Caleb

    Kayla's POV The door creaked as I pushed it open with a little dust puffing into the air. It was obvious that not a lot of people used this room.The space was small and cluttered.It was more of a glorified storage room than a real Library or archive of history. Shelves sagged under the weight of worn-out books, and loose papers were scattered across tables and floors like autumn leaves.Nothing was arranged or labeled, but I was supposed to somehow be able to magically find the books I was looking for. Great. I rubbed my temples, trying to decide where to even start. Then I heard a rustle. My head snapped to the corner, where a stack of books shifted ever so slightly. I took a cautious step forward. Someone was hiding there.My heart began to race. Was it those shadowed rogues? Had they tracked me here?Had I put the orphans in danger with my presence? “Hello? Who's there?” I called while reaching for my necklace in preparation for a fight. "I know you're there so you bett

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kayla learns about Rina

    Kayla's POV I literally couldn’t stop staring at the photograph. The picture had frayed edges and timeworn colors, but the woman in it, standing close to Adrian's father… she looked like me. No.. she looked a little Too much like me to just be normal. And It wasn’t the kind of resemblance you could shrug off as coincidence. It was the same eyes. The same shape of the mouth. Even the same stubborn, haunted expression. And to make matters even more confusing was the fact that Standing beside her with one hand gently resting on hers, was the man Elara had just told me was Alpha Dominic. Adrian’s father. How was this possible? What did this mean? My legs suddenly felt too heavy to carry me so I sat in the corner of the common room with the photo clutched in my hands, trying to make sense of it. “Elara,” I called quietly. The tall, broad-shouldered woman glanced over from where she was searching through the drawers for other things. She came over and lowered herself be

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    The founder of the Orphanage

    Kayla's POV After breakfast, I insisted on helping the staff with chores—cleaning the tables, washing dishes, folding laundry. I needed to do something with my hands that would keep my thoughts from spiralling intodark thoughts.Plus I was eager to start helping the children as fast as possible. The funny thing was that the kids followed me around, asking questions about where I came from, if I had a wolf, if I’d ever seen the Alpha in real life. I smiled and answered as vaguely as I could, not ready to explain the chaos I’d run from. But for the first time in days, I felt a strange sense of peace.Like I was right where I should be. I was hanging laundry out back when one of the staff—Elara, a tall woman with sharp gray eyes and a strong build—approached me. “You’re quite the helper Miss Kayla,” she said, nodding with a basket on her hip. “I needed something to keep me busy,” I replied. She glanced around before adding, “You know, Lady Anna swears you’ve been here before.”
